On Thursday mornings my 4 year old goes to grandma and grandpa's house.
Today when I went to go pick him up, he came running in from the garage with this.

Minus the color, of course.

I oohed and aahed the appropriate motherly amount and asked him where it came from.
"Grandpa made it for me! I asked for a canoe, but he said, 'How about an airplane?'"
I was trying to swallow my laughter and was thinking grandpa was pretty smart for making that suggestion.
He continued, "Look, the propeller spins! I told grandpa that planes don't have propellers, but he said that older planes do, so this is a great plane." And in the next breath, "Can I paint it when I get home?"
Nearly two hours later, he was still doing this.
Two hours of sitting still in a chair, and he did not once ask to watch TV.
Grandpa better be practicing his canoes.
